About the Artist

Cecil Byrnes started art classes with Stephanie Watson in the 80’s. Stephanie Watson is listed in Art and Artists South Africa(Esme Berman) with Walter Batiss as the pioneers of Serigraphy in South Africa. In the early 90’s he enrolled at UNISA for a Degree in Visual Arts which was completed in 2000. The concept of his was the power of Male Clothing. An exhibition at Raw Vision Cape Town in 2009 of drawings with a review by Janet Botes on her blog illustrates this actuality.

At the time he had 3 children at Stellenbosch University so he forsook the Academic Art route and started selling paintings at various Markets around Cape Town. He was quickly discovered by a couple of Galleries (Stellenbosch, Franschoek, Durbanville, Durban, Johannesburg and Cape Town) and being a prolific Artist sold paintings that were acquired by collectors in South Africa and every Continent except South America. Many commissions were done, Guest Houses and properties in Cape Town(Old Mutual Building Cape Town), and the surrounding areas,the most recent for a Medical Care Specialist in Cape Town.

He also did many Festivals including Whale Festival Hermanus, Olive Festival Riebeeck West, Rose Festival Elgin and the Stellenbosch Slow Market
